Question : Notes 8.5.1 - Increasing Java Heap Size - No com.ibm.rcp.j2se.<version> file

Hello, I am attempting to follow the instructions from http://www.experts-exchange.com/Software/Office_Productivity/Office_Suites/Lotus_SmartSuite/Lotus_Notes/A_2254-How-to-make-the-Lotus-Notes-8-x-Standard-client-run-faster.html to increase the size of the java heap.  However, I can not find the file mentioned to change - the article advises going to {NotesProgramDirectory}\framework\rcp\eclipse\plugins\ and looking for the com.ibm.rcp.j2se.(version).  Looking in the plugins directory, I see a lot of directories/.jar files named with this convention, but nothing matches past com.ibm.rcp.  I also did a search on my pc for *J2SE*, no joy.

Additional info:
- I am definitely using the notes standard client (according to help->about notes anyways)

-I've checked other machines, they do not appear to have this either.  All machines available have been upgraded from 7.3 to 8.5.1 via smartupgrade

-The Java environment (according to add-remove programs) is Java 6 Update 17, and J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 update 16

Answer : Notes 8.5.1 - Increasing Java Heap Size - No com.ibm.rcp.j2se.<version> file

That article does not look correct to me.

The correct file location is...

C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Lotus\Notes\framework\rcp\deploy\jvm.properties

There are 2 setting to look at: The starting heap size (vmarg.Xms) and the maximum heap size (vmarg.Xmx).

We set both of these to 1 gig (as long as the user has more than a gig available.

Here are the default values...
vmarg.Xmx=-Xmx256m
vmarg.Xms=-Xms48m

We change them to...
vmarg.Xmx=-Xmx1024m
vmarg.Xms=-Xms1024m
